So anyone got it here in india? Jt_Daniel? Others? Irene's effect?

Its in Mumbai Operations facility now. Customs cleared it with no problem unlike my previous shipment which was held up there for nearlt 4 days.
And there you go, the TP is now officially the cheapest Android Tablet for that specifications. I knew they would do it.

And guys, the prices for the 16 GB are starting to trend down in the Ebay auctions. It's retailing at around 200-220$ right now.
 
@JT_daniel Would love some pictures when that arrives.

Also why android 2.3, why not Honeycomb that's much suited for a Tablet.

I've used 2.3 & honeycomb & i like honeycomb way better than it.

@all What do you do after using iPhone4 for a year & then switch to a Nokia E7 :ashamed:
 
@aasimenator, they haven't released the source code or kernel (or something! lol) for Honeycomb yet, it seems. They're hoping to port the impending Ice Cream Sandwich to the tablets. But for now, Gingerbread's the highest they can go. :(
As for your iPhone4 query, I have no idea man. The most high end phone I've used so far is the ZTE Blade, before that I was on a Nokia C1. So an E7 is still a "high end" phone for me! :rofl:
 
I had just talked to Karan SNS

67 TP imported till now

800 bucks duty charged

weight is different , no standard

differs from 3.6 to 4.2 lbs

he gave me a heart attack by saying NY office has put value as 499 and 599

then told he has got it corrected

67 -- nice number

so how many on TE guys

or max were from retailers

@daniel... once you receive the touchpad, please let us know about the duty charged on it.. I hope it clears without duty.. :)

800 bucks only? Wow, I can live with that. :D I was having nightmares about them valuing it at 499$ and charging me 4,000 bucks as customs! :)
